From Gravity Leadership-Here’s an idea whose time has come: Let’s stop funding traditional church plants.
Instead, let’s fund missionaries to inhabit contexts all across the new mission fields of North America. It’s easy, simple, saves money, and I think it could seed the mission of God in North America for generations to come.
Traditional funding for church plants
Traditionally denominations have funded church plants. They do this by providing:
A full time salary plus benefits for three years for the church planter,
Start-up funds for equipment, building rental, etc. to a well-assessed church planter (basically an entrepreneur).
The goal is a self-sustaining church in three years, which means the church pays its own pastor’s salary and assorted costs of running the church’s services internally from tithes and offerings.
